Some times when you put down y our ipad you hit a button you don't intend to.
The best thing to do is, to make sure you're just sitting somewhere when you walk away, or respawn, but then taxi to the end of the runway and break. Thus you'll have protection, but out of the way of your Blue Team.
Boudicca, yes I've been in games with players that have done this either intentionally or on accident, it's a big pain, and yes you can lose a game this way. I feel Heff didn't mean to do it intentionally, but really should have made sure he wasn't in the way.
Husky Dog, I know you can go slow, however having been in a similar situation, it's hard to go slow through the plane when you have a red coming in shooting you, AND you have other planes spawning on top of you, thus crashing you. It was bad on Heff to not make sure he was in a safe position, if going to step away, best to spawn and move out of the way.
